As someone who loves adventure and travel, I feel so blessed to live in California – a state where a new experience is never too far away. That’s why I was so excited to find this glamping location and even more excited to be able to experience it with my best friend and her boyfriend. As young girls in high school we always talked about when we got older we would road trip with our boyfriends and all be BFFs! lolol. #DREAMCOMETRUE in more ways than one. (but that will be a separate post)
Glamping: The Campsite
First off, they’re dog friendly! So you can bring your furry best friend along which was a HUGE plus for us. Traveling so much, I often have to leave Leo at home with my parents or friends and I always miss him so much. So for $20/ night you can bring your doggie along for the adventure! WORTH!!
Secondly, each campsite has its own picnic table and fire pit WITH a grill attached. Perfect for a night with friends, food, and Catan. We took a walk by the beach and found a HUGE area just full of mussels and literally scavenged our own dinner. Although in hindsight we googled if it was safe to eat and apparently there are specific times in the year when you should NOT eat wild mussels because they may be infected with something. LUCKILY we are all safe and none of us had any stomach issues.
To wrap it up, each campsite is slightly different but still an amazing place to chill with friends and doggie friends. Other awesome features include the electric heated mattress topper which really came in clutch because it was actually super cold at night since the camps are right by the coast.
